So, many more setbacks, all involving the 1 year old again, perhaps we can setup a kids play area for the next LD? I have scaled the game back a bit from full 2d XZ movement using some type of physics-y acceleration/velocity modeling to a much simpler side-scroller type game, this move was partly fueled by the few hours I lost this afternoon and partly because I couldn’t get the old controls to feel good.

The game is coming along, I now have a score counting up and the concept of health, so soon the lose condition can go in, which will make it officially a game. I did a few around-the-game things like throwing a HUD in. Next job is to get some things int he play field for you to avoid/shoot.
